Because some people are too stupid to figure out that a group of fans is not actually the team. So when fans of a team act like dumbasses, other dumbasses call out the franchise instead of those fans.

just what came to mind, along with a couple knees and elbows to the same player while he was on the ground.
Kobe is just a fake, classless douche. Gasol's constant screaming during games and whining afterward doesn't help any, either. What grown man screams like a girl every time he gets stripped or lightly jostled?

Sadly a lot of NBA players, superstars and otherwise.

I agree it HAPPENS, Gasol just takes it further than anyone. I don't think there's 2 consecutive possessions a womanly cry doesn't emit from his lungs. What doubles it though, is he complains about physical play afterwards. Come the fuck on!!

Nobody in the Laker organization is classless.
Classless is Boston. It's KG getting on all 4's screaming like a damn animal at midget PG's. It's Eddie House, Doc Rivers, and Tom T. screaming at players as they take a 3 near their bench. That's classless.
People hate the Lakers because the Lakers are winners. Haters hate success. Therefore haters will always hate the Lakers.

Phil Jackson is classless for obvious reasons..in his book, he implied that Kobe is a rapist..he involves himself in many places where he doesn't belong..he takes shots at other players and teams..
Kobe for obvious reasons..alleged rapist, throws his teammates under the bus, throws management under the bus, snitched on Shaq for no reason, publicly embarrassed Bynum, taunts classy players like Shane Battier, gives up on his team in a game 7..I can go on..

Let me get this straight: Boston, the most successful franchise in the NBA, the franchise the Lakers are chasing are classless, but the Lakers are not? Lakers are hated because of their success, because haters hate success? Wouldn't that make your Boston hate, the most successful franchise of them all, hypocritical?

The Lakers are winners but they are also losers. They have lost the most NBA Finals in NBA history. They are 15 for 30 when it comes to winning the NBA title. The Celtics have a much better record in the Finals. They have won 17 championships in 20 appearances.

Most teams have players that are classless. Just depends on how you define it. Trash talking is all well and good and up to a certain point there is nothing wrong with it. Some people can go overboard with it, some can play dirty, and some can be poor teammates and lack sportsmanship.
If your team's culture is comprised of mostly classless players, then your team is classless. If you have one or two players, then it is more isolated.

If you disect the team, 80% of the people playing are not bad and generally nice people.
The problem is, the face of the team have done things that can be considered classless, annoying and downright stupid.
Even if you argue that Kobe is the only one doing these things, the fact that he is THE face of the team speaks volumes of how people will perceive the lakers.
I also think LA corrupts in general, people can't avoid being cocky in LA.

Very distorted though in that the Celts won 8 in a row against the Lakers in the 60's. Id rather get to the finals and lose than be first round fodder anyday.

You see, I did the little quotation thingy with my fingers because when he used the word "Dr" in his username, I'm pretty absolutely positively certain that he thought it stood for Drug Rehab, which he wouldn't be going to if he would just learn to take down the mirrors in his house and stop looking at himself every five minutes, I mean come on, that kind of mug is just a li-hi-hi-hi-hi-ttle too upsetting for anyone to want to see.

I don't remember where I read it, but can anyone confirm or deny the claim that Phil Jackson used unethical classical conditioning on his players? Something like comparing pictures of the Kings to pictures of world dictators or something. I hope it's not true; win or lose, this destroys the integrity of the game.

Nothing, but when talking about being classless, it is pertinent and it does not matter how many have done it.
Difference is, he was accused of rape and his wife was embarrassed on a national scale. I guess it is the media's fault and not Kobe's.
Trash talking has nothing to do with basketball, but it is part of the game is it not? Many classless players go overboard with it.
But who cares, if you think your team is classy, then that is all that matters. Some do not agree with you.

He didn't make a mistake by "just" having an affair, he's an alleged rapist..it's potentially much bigger than that, and it's never been proven that he didn't do it, just like it has never been proven that he did..
when Phil Jackson heard of the accusations, he said he wasn't surprised..this is coming from Phil Jackson's book..speaks volumes on Kobe's character IMO..
he also snitched on Shaq, just because he got caught..what kind of immature shit is that?.."I got caught, so I'm taking Shaq down with me"..
he also embarrassed Bynum and his family on a tape, calling him out..he also threw his teammates and management under the bus..

During the case, I was absolutely disgusted with the defense atourneys. Accidently "dropping" the girl's name and then using ad hominim attacks like crazy; it was disgusting.
The media is a huge piece of it, but superstars need to remember that their every move will be scrutinized, and they need to take the good with the bad. Everytime the NBA shoves another 'NBA Cares' commercial down our throats, we get another story about how some NBA player committed a felony. Just because others have done it doesn't diminish a player's class.
